A review by duchess
Hope and Red by Jon Skovron
3.0
Entertaining, if generic. This book was really heavy-handed & try-hard in its attempts to sound 'feminist' by pushing multiple instances of wholly unjustified self-doubt due to being female followed up with "YOU CAN DO IT!!! GIRL POWER!!!" Normally this is all well and good, but the execution jars when it's done by a male author. That, and I would have appreciated 100% fewer uses of the phrase 'cunt-droppings'.
The ending was good though, and have to give this book a +1 for including a trans character, and this book has a killer cover sooooo maybe I'll keep track of book 2?
